Irrigation Treatments

A field experiment was carried out during the Boro season 2013 to find out the effects of water management practices on rice yield performance and water productivity index at Old Brahmaputra flood plain paddy land, Muktagacha, Mymensingh. The experiment was laid out in randomized complete block design (RCBD) with six (6) irrigation treatments. Two treatments, T1 and T3 were kept under continuous standing water levels (10 cm and 5 cm respectively) while in treatment T5 irrigation water was supplied for 1st 3 weeks then followed mid season drain out and re-flooded at flowering stage. Three alternate wetting and drying irrigation treatments, T2, T4 and T6 were selected in which irrigation water was applied when water level dropped 20cm, 10cm and 15cm below ground level, respectively. All the irrigation treatments significantly affected the rice yield and yield contributing parameters. The study revealed that the highest grain yield (5950 kg ha-1) was found in treatment T5 which was identical with AWDI treatment T4 (5820 kg ha-1) followed by AWDI treatment T6 (5460 kg ha-1). On the contrary, rice yield of 3350 kg ha-1, 4470 kg ha-1 and 4810 kg ha-1 were found in the treatment T1, T2 and T3, respectively. It was found that AWDI treatment T2 showed maximum water savings (15.1%) followed by T6 (11.3%), T4 (7.59%) and T5 (3.8%), however rice yield in the treatment T2 (4470 kg ha-1) was significantly lower compared to T6, T4 and T5 treatment. Therefore, it may be inferred that treatment T4 (AWDI; irrigation when water level fell 10 cm from ground level), T5 (Irrigation for 1st 3 weeks, then mid-season drain out and re-flooding at flowering) and T6 (AWDI; irrigation when water level fell 15cm from ground level) would be the feasible choice for the water savings, higher rice yield as well as maximum water productivity index (0.478, 0.472 and 0.467, respectively) for sustaining rice farming during the dry Boro season in Bangladesh.J.

Nitrogen Levels

The permanently flooded, and the dry seeded and afterwards permanently flooded treatments produced higher grain yield than intermittent flooding treatments at all nitrogen levels. Rice responded up to 125 kg N/ha irrespective of the water management system. Recovery of applied nitrogen was higher when permanently flooded. The largest proportion of extracted nitrogen occurred in the stems and the lowest in the roots. Flowering was delayed 12 days in the intermittent flooding system at all nitrogen levels as compared to the other two irrigation management systems.

Iron toxicity is a factor causing low rice yield on tidal swamp land (TSL).Soil quality improvement by using water management, organic matter and introducing adaptable varietywere some options to increaseits productivity in the soils. Field experiment was conducted to  evaluate effects of applying water management, organic matter and adaptable variety to increase its productivity on a TSL of KP Belandean, Barito Kuala District of South Kalimantan, during dry season of 2010. The research was arranged in a split-split-plot design with three  replicates. The main plots were two water management, i.e: P0 = without water management (control) and P1= intermittent water management, while sub plots were three organic matter application, i.e: B0 = without organic matter application (control), B1 = straw  compost 3 t/ha, B2 = manure 2 t/ha, and sub sub plots were five rice varieties, i.e. V1 = Mekongga, V2 = Inpari 1, V3 = Ciherang, V4 = Silugonggo and V5 = Margasari. The result showed that there was interaction between water management and variety tested on rice yield in TSL. The highest yield was reached by Inpari 1 variety which treatment intermitten water management, with  yield i.e. 5.390 t/ ha.Silugonggo and Ciherang was not suitable to cultivate on TSL. The implication of this research was variety recomendation on a tidal swamp land, i.e. Inpari 1 variety and intermitten water management.

The results are presented of four glasshouse experiments conducted at Deniliquin, New South Wales, investigating the competition between rice (Oryza sativa) and barnyard grass (Echinochloa spp.) grown on Riverina clay. A study of the response to nitrogen, phosphorus, and sulphur showed that Echinochloa tillering was favoured as level of nutrient supply increased. Echinochloa severely depressed rice tillering and yield. Delayed application of nitrogen did not result in any increase in rice yield when competing with Echinochloa. In the absence of Echinochloa competition, rice tillering and grain yield responded to both added nitrogen and phosphorus, but there was no significant yield response to sulphur. Rice panicle production (fertile tillering) was strongly influenced by nutrient supply and was, in turn, related to final grain yield of rice.

Light Fraction Organic Matter

Crop management influences the quantity and quality of organic matter in agricultural soils. A crop rotation study established at Lethbridge, Alberta in 1951 was sampled in September 1992 to determine the effect of crop management on total, light fraction and mineralizable (10-wk) organic matter contents. Spring wheat was the dominant cropping system; treatments examined include fallow frequency, forage hay production in rotation, manure amendment, N fertilizer application, and native grass. The two latter treatments were introduced in 1985. Total and light fraction organic matter did not vary among phases of the rotation whereas mineralized C tended to be lowest during and shortly after a fallow phase. When averaged across rotation phases, total, light fraction, and mineralized organic matter were enhanced by reduced fallow frequency, manure additons, hay production and native grass. Highest concentrations of total and labile organic concentrations in the 0- to 7.5-cm soil depth were generally found in the continuously-cropped wheat and native grass treatments. Hay production significantly increased soil organic matter in the 15- to 30-cm soil depth. Nitrogen fertilization did not increase soil organic matter in this study, likely because of minimal yield response over the treatment period. Sensitivity of the various indicators to treatment [(highest–lowest)/lowest] was 0.2 for total, 2.5 for light fraction, and 1.5 for mineralized soil organic C. Light fraction organic matter was the most robust indicator of management-induced effects on soil organic matter. Key words: Labile organic matter, fallow frequency, forage hay production, manure, native grass
